If you're planning on doing a trek, going skiing, doing some hiking or mountaineering , I recommend you do some training beforehand! It's often a lot more challenging than people expect. And after all, its a holiday! So the fitter you are the more you'll enjoy it!

Another great aide for me! I'm going to get all the supplies and start this on my next day off. Thank you!!!
Great video! Ordered myself a pulse oximeter & crowd clicker. Looking forward to taking my test!
Loving the app Chase, which is a big help for consistent focus. Just to mention I had to come to RUclips to from the app, to find the link to the PDF mentioned. I couldn't find the link below the app vid there. Thanks for the great help.
clear and simple yet powerfull explanation
Thank you so much!
Wow this is really comprehensive and it all makes sense. I tried trek training before with a coach and he didn’t discuss half of what you just talked about. I’m a beginner and this is so helpful. Anddddd... you are really cute! Hahaha. Are you single LOL
Good details video bro ❤ planning ebc trekking
I just passed my fourty when I wanted to start hiking and completely clueless where to start.
A bit late though, but your channel manage to open my mind that it's still doable for me.
Huge thanks!
Totally doable after 40! My only suggestion is do not get too gung-ho! Take your time, progress slowly so you do not get injured. With proper training and careful slow progress you will be amazed at what you do can do! Best of luck and happy trails.
@@rodc4334 thanks mate!
Don’t head out to the pasture just yet. I’m doing 14,000+ footers at 50. Spend a couple years working up to it.
Love this! I’m almost 60 and heading to Chamonix in June ‘24 to🤞🏼summit Mont Blanc! Lots of training with steps steps and more steps indoors and out, plus strength and endurance training too.
You can do it !!!
Nice video bro. All the best. Keep up the good work :)
Thanks Ravi! I got a new video up in just a few hours! See you there!
@@ChaseMountains sure.. i am going to try climbing steps like in the video tomorrow morning.
Thanks for the video man, you have my subscription. I have a question about these sort of active heart rate tests: how much effort should we be exerting? Should I be trying to push myself as fast as I can? Or is there some lower percentage of approximate effort we should aim for?
Hey David, welcome to the channel. a test like this should be performed just once every 6-8 weeks or so. if you're new to fitness I would not recommend giving a 100% effort just because it's risky. But if you've been training for some time I would recommend pushing as hard as you can. In training however it's a different story, you're better off working at a lower intensity for a longer time. I've got a video coming out very soon that with go into more detail and also the elements program which is just a few days from release gives very specific info on this but this comment box isn't big enough for me to provide sufficient detail! Hang in there for a couple of days it will be out soon! But until then, work less hard for longer :)
Amazing content! Would there be a good test for Alpine style speed self testing? I find that's something I always have struggled with! Thanks!
Can you give me some more detail on what you mean? How quickly do you climb routes? How many pitches do you typically climb? What is the gradient of the terrain etc? What do you feel is most holding you back?
What kind of stretching should I do before I start the training? I assume each day before trek, hikers would spend sometime on stretching
Hi Chase, we all really appreciate this content that you share with us here. just a question, what is an ideal difference between resting heart rate and active heart rate after doing the 15min step test, no matter how many steps were done? :)
ahah theres no answer for that. Everyones different
If I choose not to use the pulse/oxygen measure - would it be equally beneficial to see instead how my number of steps increase over time during the 15 minutes?
Thankyou.
3 questions: can I use the Stair Master instead of a box? (I'm not sure now - but I think mine is 28cm). Do you take height into consideration (I'm 5'3 / 161cm - how does that compare with a tall person of lets say 6'2" - when step training/weight of the backpack? And what do you recommend for altitude training? I'm on 500 altitude meters.. that's not nearly the 4k I want to climb...?
Pick a box that is about 75% of your knee height. In terms of altitude, I have a whole playlist on that, but don't pay to use an altitude room it's pointless. I don't think stairmasters are an effective way to train and I go into that in this video! Hope that helps! Chase ruclips.net/video/h7QTEYSKkGI/видео.html
@@ChaseMountains Thanks!!
plz. tell me!!!! you have not mentioned any information about how to compare resting heart rate and active heart rate after test. and what should be ur heart rate after test.
Hey, thank you for the amazing tips. The PDF is no longer available. Is there any chance to get it from somewhere else?
it works perfectly fine on my end
Worked when I copied the link in the address bar. Clicking it does nothing. Thank you again
Awesome video! I absolutely love your channel, you have kept me sane and motivated through this pandemic.
I just tried to download the document though, and the link works, but when you click the "get the guide" button you get a 404 error
Hey!! Thanks for the kind words I'm glad I've kept you sane! I've been trying to figure out that 404 error for a while so I'm sorry about that here's the direct download link: bit.ly/mountain-test
@@ChaseMountains Awesome! Thank you! :) Good luck with the troubleshooting; fixing stuff like that can be such a pain sometimes
What’s a good #? Is it 300?
inadvisable for any layperson to attempt checking carotid pulse for a meaningful number. don't want to accidentally activate carotid sinus. always test at wrist with radial pulse.
My legs burn out very fast doing this. Do you think just training will help? I have quite large leg muscles.
Training will undoubtedly help! And yeah, I am also quadzilla
Am I the only one confused how to count the steps ? Is is just up ? Or down too ? 😅
Unfortunately the PDF is no longer available from the basecamp website. (Page not found)
Hi Brett, I checked all the links in the description, which one are you clicking that isn't working? Try this one basecamptraining.com.au/mountain-fitness-test
@@ChaseMountains the link does not work.
What is a minimum result for 15-minute step-ups before I go on a beginner's 5-day trek (Ktm-Lukla-Namche-Phakding), thanks
Hey Alan, I don't have the direct answer to your question. But looking at your trek schedule from Kathmandu to Namche , I will say trekking from Lukla to Phakding is pretty easy as your are going a bit down on that day. Next day can be little tougher as there is steep hike for sometime before reaching Namche Bazar. So if you are a regular person for trekking and physically active, it should be fun. I did my trek to Everest base Camp in April, 2019 with a 6 years + daughter and she did well during the entire trek. Hope it helps.
Or get a Garmin
